The pizza was good but not for us, with New Yorker palates. The pizza as floppy, covered in olive oil to the point of being soupy, and was not cut so it had to be cut while being super soggy. I would recommend if you like this type of pizza, but avoid if you want a crispier slice!

The dough is very thin, thin but very crusty and tender at once. The varieties to each better. Workers and charming.

I the 30+ year vegetarian ordered the margarita with the multigrain crust (optional/ up charge). The omnivores got the I Puritani and the La Straniera - off the gourmet menu which is the recommendation on other review sites. All were fantastic and complex. Had a great bottle of wine from Mt Etna region. Lighting was harsh and table lamps don't work but a minimal issue. Would definitely come back.

My thing is... idk why in Europe it's so common to have bbq sauce on burgers and chicken wings in Europe I guess it's like a staple here lol I really don't care for bbq sauce that much so I already was expecting the food to be alright. The beer on tap was good tho I will say and the place was packed! I ordered a burger with some fries and onion rings I'll say that the burger was good but it started to break apart because of the amount of grilled onion and the type of bread they used. I'll give the burger a 4/5 for flavor and just all around experience at this spot. Would I go here again? Yeah I would why not I'll try something different next time !

Il Sale sits in the middle of this street. First things first, VSF is a trendy but very good street for excellent dining and bar options. It is a vibe. You go inside Il Sale and you a find yourself in a modern, fun and inviting eatery Also the food is not traditional Sicilian, more inventive and fresh. I visited here to get a pizza and was very impressed with the quality of ingredients. Also ordered the generous and sweet orange, fennel and capers salad. I was in heaven having a Pizza Norma (not pasta but excellent in every way). I've never had pizza with caciocavallo cheese and this pizza was heavenly with it. Service was prompt if a bit friendly. Our server helped us with selecting the pizza, we ordered the salad. I wish I had more time for a second visit because I really enjoyed the pizza and salad here. And the cassata was super delicious. Loved Il Sale and will come back. End of Yelp

I can say with 100% certainty that this is the top three best pizzas I've ever had in my life. I ordered the picante with stuffed crust and when I took a bite, I just sat there chewing then smiling because it was so delicious. A total treat for the senses! I'm so happy we stopped here on a whim, I usually don't eat an entire pizza by myself but Il Sale Art Cafe brought out the pig in me because I could not let the pizza go to waste. Unfortunately slow service but I will disregard that for the pizza. I would come back to Catania just to eat here alone!

For breakfast, there were many different pastries stuffed with both sweet and savory fillings. We ended up getting more because they were so good. The woman who waited on us was incredibly nice as well. For dinner, I ended up horse meatballs, and they were excellent. They were well seasoned without covering up the natural horse flavor. The olives appetizer was also very nice. I'm definitely coming back here the next time I'm in Catania! I'd also like to check out the B&B side of it, as it says that it's associated with a B&B.

Very disappointed. Not recommended. Felt let down by previous reviewers…read more It started off poorly when trying to get Wi-Fi. You need Wi-Fi in this stone building with zero cell service. They use a free service that requires giving up information and only provides an intermittent weak signal. So annoying. The service was indifferent. Not rude, but they just were a bit off-putting. It started when we walked in at 1 minute after opening time and were told: "not open". The pizzas are very good and reasonably priced. We had a Margarita and a Diavola. The wine list is decent and reasonably priced. We had a white Etna Zibibo for €25. Quite good and a new flavor for us. A glass of red. Grappa barrique that was awful. Not smooth. Similar to moonshine. - Wi-Fi sucks - paper placemats - paper napkins - Salvinelli medium flatware - Edison lightbulbs that are hung too low so the bulb is in your face. - no music €61 for dinner for 2

Ordered a bunch of starters, which are smaller than the main entrees, but 2-3 are good for the table including; Caprese Salad, Sicilian Eggplant Caponata, Eggplant Parmigiana, and Oven baked potatoes with scamorza cheese. The Spaghetti with Shrimps, dried Tomatoes, Fennels and bread crumb was okayyy, but the Paccheri Norma style with Tomato sauce and Fresh Ricotta cheese was SO good! The Horse meatballs were so tender and tasted basically the same as ground meat, so I say explore and try them out. This location is also only a 5 minute walk right from the Catania Cathedral in a popular tourist area, where you can walk around and do basic shopping. The servers were helpful, all spoke English, the inside of the restaurant was clean and had solid AC!
